My God, my Fire and my Light! The days which Thou hast named
the Ayyám-i-Há (the Days of Há, Intercalary days) in Thy Book have begun, O Thou
Who art the King of names, and the fast which Thy most exalted Pen hath
enjoined unto all who are in the kingdom of Thy creation
to observe is approaching. I entreat Thee, O my Lord, by these days and by all
such as have during that period clung to the cord of Thy commandments, and laid
hold on the handle of Thy precepts, to grant that unto every soul may be
assigned a place within the precincts of Thy court, and a seat at the
revelation of the splendors of the light of Thy countenance.
